And, from the perspective of all those who are concerned about all types of dogs unnecessarily ending up in shelters (….purebreds included) – many to be needlessly ‘killed’ – we all share in the responsibility of correcting this “shelter intake” situation, i.e. pet owners, responsible breeders, national humane organizations, public and private shelter managers, etc.
A major issue, however, seems to be whatever level of regulation…if at all…the breeder community at large is willing to accept (and if regulation is indeed necessary) in order to greatly reduce or stop indiscriminate breeding.
